Comments from past participants:

"In January I took two classes for how to be a working actor at Stage West Theatre and was signed by an agent I wouldn’t have been introduced to otherwise. I then took a class on how to create a character quickly and not only was I cast in a feature I was upgraded to a better role during my audition!!" - Natalie W. (How to have an acting career & Creating Dynamic Characters)

"I feel more confident and less afraid of judgement. I feel prepared for ANY audition." - Ross (Conservatory)

"It was so much fun! Without a doubt I'd recommend it to anyone. I would definitely go again." - Kirsten (Conservatory)

"Well-organized, super fun and fantastic atmosphere! ...The Conservatory helped me increase my confidence, which will help me in multiple aspects of life." - Bre (Conservatory)
